>> greta: well, i was contacted by an individual at the fbi who i had never met, i didn't know. he offered informs to me -- information to me that gave me pause and a cause for alarm. i had no way to corroborate the information. and certainly, the information to me... gave rise to the possibility that there was a national security issue that perhaps our cia director was vulnerable. but again, i couldn't corroborate or substantiate the information that was given it me. we were about 10 days or a few weeks out before the election. and i didn't want to politicize it. i wanted to make sure that national security wasn't at risk. so i turned to the person and the entit that i thought -- entity i thought best equipped to deal with that information to get to the bottom of it. that was the fbi director in his office that we know has an obligation to make sure that our national security is the priority and the fbi's also obligated to apprise congress if there is a need for or an ongoing investigation or if there is a national security risk at hand. and so that's why i did what i did. and

something like that should not and would not rise to an fbi probe? >> it's a great question, and what we found out was the way he was being described was really inaccurate. people had initially reported and republican leaders had described him as a whistleblower who came forward, complaining to cantor, house majority leader cantor's office because he was worried the fbi investigation that uncovered an affair by the cia director david petraeus was stalled for political reasons. it was implied he was concerned about the progress of this case and worried about it being shelved improperly. what we found in our reporting is sources very close to humphries and aware of his account, briefed on his information, tell us quite a different story about the agent. he's a tampa agent who had a long-standing sort of social acquaintance with jill kelley, the woman in tampa. he basically forwarded some information to his tampa fbi colleagues about harassing e-mails that were more interesting than everyday harassing e-mails because they mentioned a four-star general.
